“Sixty-six metres high, the Durie Hill Elevator was built in 1919 and is NZ’s only public underground elevator and unique in the southern hemisphere!”
A pedestrian tunnel leads to the elevator and at the top the panoramic views of the Tasman Sea, Mount Ruapehu and Mount Taranaki are amazing. Right next to the elevator tower is the fantastic War Memorial Tower, which, when climbed, will offer an even more amazing vista of the city! These are the places for your selfie 🙂 One of the top things to do in Whanganui!
